Additional mooring sites added for persons quarantining on boats
Three more locations have been added to government’s list of mooring sites for persons approved to undergo their mandatory four-day quarantine on vessels, upon entry into the BVI.
The additional sites are Little Harbour, Great Harbour, and Deadman’s Bay on Peter Island.
Premier Andrew Fahie said these mooring sites have been added to minimise COVID-19 risks locally.
“The value of increasing the number of mooring sites for ‘Days 0-4’ is the subsequent decrease in the risk of interaction and contact between persons quarantining on their vessels, thus effectively helping to minimise the spread of COVID-19,” Fahie said in a recent government media release.
In the meantime, other approved mooring sites include Benures Bay, Soldier Bay, South Bay, Spring Bay, White Bay, Hallovers Bay, Valley Trunk Bay, Long Bay, Malone Bay, George Dog, Lee Bay, Muskmelon Bay, Pamato Point (West) and Manchioneel Bay.
